Table formatting suggestions[edit]

Should "Episode Name" be renamed to "Episode Debut" ? The name by itself does not make much sense.

Also, the premiere dates in the table should follow YYYY-MM-DD instead of YYYY/MM/DD per MOS:DATE -AngusWOOF (talk) 02:05, 14 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I changed it to "Episode Debut", I have no opinion on the dates. CTF83! 03:22, 14 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
